Early the next morning, Ian woke up and went to the backyard to chop wood and prepare for the morning fire.

After condensing the Source Seed last night, Hilliard asked Ian to strike while the iron was hot and run the breath guidance technique to stabilize the overactive essentia in his body, and at the same time familiarize Ian with the power of the true Source Seed.

It's a tough one.

The boy noticed that it was much more difficult to calm the essentia than to make it move.

When a car starts to accelerate in a matter of seconds, it may depend on the engine, which is the quality of the source.

But to bring a car to a standstill at full speed for a few seconds, what is needed has nothing to do with the engine.

"The essentia is the power of life, and the source seed is the vortex of life, which can certainly bring power to the sublimator, but it is always running at full speed, and it will also accelerate the burning of life."

This is a very simple truth, and the old knight did not say much: "If nothing else, you can't stop the beating of essentia, don't even think about falling asleep this week, it's very damaging to your body." ”

- Indeed, what is the difference between leaving an eight-year-old child without sleep for a week and killing someone?

After spending half a night, Ian finally calmed the essentia in his body, and he fell asleep in silence.

"It's a feeling...... Not bad! ”

Aking from a dreamless deep sleep, Ian felt energetic and energetic.

Although I only slept for about three hours, I felt more energetic than I used to sleep all night.

Not only that, but when he calmed down, he could clearly sense the changes in his body.

At this moment, Ian can easily sense his breathing rate, heart rate, pulse rate, and even the subtle trembling of his muscles and the unconscious squirming of his internal organs with just a little concentration.

This perception, almost inward-looking, makes it easy to discover the dissonance in your body.

It doesn't sound like much, but it's only when you actually have it that you know how amazing this perception is.

Ian had a hunch that if he was injured, he could directly control the fit of the injured area, even if he was stabbed in the lung by a native like Bryn, he would be able to control the flow of blood for a short time, avoid the injured area, avoid bleeding from internal organs, and worsen the injury.

"I've gotten stronger."

There is a hammer in his hand, and everything is a nail.

Taking advantage of the excitement, as soon as Ian woke up, he came to the courtyard to chop wood.

Raising the axe, he weighed it, then lifted it, aligned, waved his arm, and cut it straight down.

Click!

With this axe, he simply split the vertical log into two sections, smoothly and quickly, and even followed the texture of the wood, as smoothly as if it was not a hard log, but a roadside weed.

Click, click!

After a few more axes in a row, Ian split a log into a firewood in one go.

After stopping, he himself was stunned, holding an axe and muttering: "How come, my strength has obviously not increased too much, but the feeling is completely different from a few days ago!" ”

"Smooth, easy ......"

There is no substantial gap between the virtual source species and the source species, and there are even examples of the quality of the source seeds condensed by the apprentices themselves is not good, so that after leaving the virtual source seeds given by the teacher, after condensing by themselves, their physical strength decreases.

But the source seed that Ian condensed was the best source seed that could be condensed at his age and realm, even compared to the virtual source seed given by Hilliard, it was very dazzling, much more than that.

Of course, this excess is only a slight increase in physical strength, after all, it is only a few hours, and no matter how powerful the source seed is, it is impossible to strengthen it too much.

But such a slight improvement, manifested in reality, is surprising.

"Because that's your source, you have complete control over the power to operate smoothly."

Hilliard appeared behind Ian, who had no idea where to go in the morning, and came back with a grim face.

But after seeing Ian's performance of chopping wood, the old man still smiled: "You can clearly see the texture of the wood, grasp the angle of the axe when it is chopped, and you can also fine-tune the direction of the force in time, so the chopping wood is naturally easy and happy." ”

He came to his student's side, reached out to adjust Ian's grip on the axe and his standing, and motioned for the other to continue chopping.

Click, click, the sound of logging is smoother and more natural.

"Good."

Observing Ian's movements, the old knight objectively commented: "Although your current physical strength is still not as good as that of an adult imperial male, it has a certain advantage compared to the natives. ”

"But you've become an apprentice of sublimation, and you have a strong control over your body, and it's hard for an average adult to pose a threat to you."

"Coupled with your psionic energy, as well as the power of a short-term essentia explosion, you can defeat most of the indigenous squads and wild beasts, and in the land of Nanling, you have the ability to protect yourself."

"But if it goes on like this, it's hard for me to hide."

Without stopping, Ian continued to chop wood, and after Hilliard's adjustments, his capacity was more natural and smooth, and his efficiency was improved by two percent.

Amid the continuous sound of wood cracking, he frowned and thought, "Psionic energy can also explain, if I show extraordinary physical abilities in the future, anyone will know that my situation here is not right." ”

He didn't say hiding.

It is very difficult to hide physical ability, many details can show a person's physical fitness, Ian thought to himself that he had not undergone anti-reconnaissance training, and no matter how careful his thoughts were, it was impossible not to show his feet.

"No need to hide."

But Hilliard shook his head, he took the axe from Ian's hand, motioned for Ian to take the wood that had been chopped to cook, and began to chop wood himself.

The old man chopped wood with an axe, which was not fast, but it made it difficult for Ian to distinguish the direction of the axe blade, and the main body of the chopped firewood was even more immovable, if it were not for the continuous peeling of the wood blocks, Ian would not even be able to detect the fact that the firewood was chopped.

If the teacher chops not the wood, but the human body......

Ian shook his head, gathering his spirits.

Sensing his student's attention, Hilliard smiled and chopped wood as he spoke, "According to what I know of the current situation of the Empire, whether it is the Elder of the White People or the local lord, after knowing that you are a psionic being, they will definitely win you over as soon as possible and give you the inheritance and cultivation of the true form of the bloodline. ”

"Although only a part, or even only a part of the first energy level, hangs you from serving them with the subsequent advanced inheritance, but no matter what, they will be willing to cultivate you. This is one of the few good traditions of the empire that has survived. ”

Stopping the axe, Hilliard pointed to Ian's chest and said to the boy who was still skeptical: "Don't worry, the Empire is not gentle, but it is not fierce either, and they have always acted fast when it comes to valuable talents. ”

"The existence of psionics is value in itself, and you have proven your value, and they will definitely give you a legacy."

"Is it really that fast?"

Ian doesn't doubt the veracity of Hilliard's words, but would this efficiency occur in a non-modern aristocracy? He did have some doubts.

"Don't underestimate other people."

Hilliard shook his head, and he reminded, "Grant is a second-level sublimator, and he doesn't need to sleep. ”

"That's right."

As if thinking of something, the old knight said to Ian, who had already turned around, "Go to your room and have a look, there is a surprise." ”
